I'm not familiar with that model, but Mountfield make a variety of
mowers ranging from poor to reasonable.

The better ones have:
* cast aluminium frames rather than pressed sheet steel
* Briggs& Stratton engines rather than cheap Italian imitations
* a roller at the back rather than wheels all round


The cheap pressed steel Mountfield one I had (a special at B&Q), had a
plastic carburettor and diaphram (on the B&S engine), the latter which
required replacement after only a year of use.


This is the machine I am thinking of buying

This one looks as good as new but is less that a third of the price in the
link above.

'Fraid I don't know anything about machines of that ilk - my experience
is limited to rotary mowers which you push along!
